Patrick the Pancake

On his way to work Patrick the Pancake said to himself confidently, “Today I shall be covered in maple syrup, lathered with butter, and consumed to satisfy the taste-buds of Tristan the Pancake Taster”.  Just before consumption, Patrick had second thoughts and pleaded for his life.  Terrified that a pancake was talking to him, Tristan dropped Patrick the Pancake on the floor, where he met his doom with Kari the K-9.
